Jalen Williams of the Oklahoma City Thunder is receiving a bit of backlash online, and he is responding to it. Williams recently posted a photo comparison of himself to Kobe Bryant, and multiple people online poked fun at him.

The Oklahoma City star Williams fired back at his critics in an Instagram comment this week. Williams was asked by a user about what he would say to those labeling him as “corny.” “tbh the same people calling me corny couldn’t hold my water in real life,” said Williams. “prolly would ask for a selfie if we was face to face.”

Many NBA stars today grew up idolizing the late Kobe Bryant, and Oklahoma City Thunder’s Jalen Williams is no exception. In a recent photo, Williams recreated Bryant’s iconic moment of shooting left-handed while his right hand was injured.
